Pick Analysis. LB. Texas Tech. Jordyn Brooks. 874. Scouting Report. 4. player

Another pick where the Cleveland Browns find a 2020 NFL draft prospect who could potentially fill in for a loss in free agency. Losing linebacker Joe Schobert would be a big loss to their defense in free agency. Here, they add a quality linebacker who could help soften the blow of that loss.

Jordyn Brooks has taken on a more major role for Texas Tech this season and has proven to be a fantastic playmaker for the team. Through eight games this season, Brooks leads the team in tackles with 87 and tackles for loss with 15.5. He has also piled up three sacks on the season and has forced one fumble.

Brooks is an extremely quick and athletic linebacker who always seems to be around the ball. He does a great job of fighting through traffic and is an extremely reliable tackler in open space. He is also a solid coverage linebacker who can play on all three downs at the next level.

WR. Michael Pittman Jr.. USC. 5. player. 808. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis

As the 2020 NFL Draft process goes along, I expect Michael Pittman Jr. to significantly rise up draft boards. However, he was available for the Cleveland Browns here and would undoubtedly be a great addition to their offense.

Pittman is a big and physical receiver who shows strong hands and impressive natural leaping ability. He is a strong contested-catch receiver who can also separate a bit. Pittman is not a burner on the outside, but he has shown some increased speed and quickness this season.

Wide receiver is not a major position of need for the Browns, but Pittman is a talented and productive player who would be a massive steal in this range.
